Dorin,

[Seems that you are trying to make a container to behave like a form :)
Why not using forms without titlebar? I've done this for an outlook style interface with top level form and forms instantiated on right side of main form. ]

You are correct, we are trying to make a container behave like a form. And, I like your idea. I have to admit, I did not realize you could turn off the titlebar on a form (DUH!). One thing that is nice about your solution is that allowing users to move containters is a tough proposition. Allowing them to move forms is a walk in the park.

Do you foresee any gotchas in using this methodology? Like data sessions issues or anything like that?


Thanks,

Scott
